‘Glee’s’ Darren Criss Headed To Broadway
Darren Criss is definitely on a roll! Going from YouTube fame to being recently promoted to a full-time cast member on Glee, it was announced today that Criss will make his Broadway debut replacing Daniel Radcliffe as J. Pierrepont Finch in a limited three-week engagement of How To Succeed In Business Without Really Trying early next year.
“Daniel gives an extraordinary performance eight times a week and we knew finding someone to fill his shoes would be nearly impossible. When we learned of Darren’s dream of performing on Broadway we knew we had found our Finch but presumed his Glee schedule would eliminate any chance to work with him,” said the Broadway show’s director/choreographer Rob Ashford.
“We are ecstatic and grateful to Ryan Murphy and his Glee team at 20th Century Fox TV for helping to make both Darren’s and our dream come true.”
Criss’ limited three-week engagement will run from January 3, 2012 through January 22, 2012. Tickets are on sale now.

Amy Winehouse Found Dead At London Home
Multiple news sources in the U.K. are reporting that singer Amy Winehouse has been found dead at her apartment in London.
According to the Daily Mail, the 27-year-old singer was “apparently found at the property by emergency services at 3:54 p.m. this afternoon. Her death is being treated as ‘unexplained’ by police.”
Winehouse had struggled with drug and alcohol addiction for years and had headed back to rehab this past May.
In June, the singer was booed off the stage in Belgrade, Serbia after mumbling the words to her hit songs and stumbling around. The disastrous show resulted in the cancellation of the singer’s planned 12-gig comeback tour.
A statement was released in the aftermath of that event, which said, “Amy Winehouse is withdrawing from all scheduled performances. Everyone involved wishes to do everything they can to help her return to her best and she will be given as long as it takes for this to happen.”
Earlier this week, Winehouse made a surprise appearance at the iTunes Festival during goddaughter Dionne Bromfield’s set in Camden.
In 2006, the singer took home five Grammy Awards for her multi-million-selling album, Back to Black.
